Sex or sexual experiences can be a great part of your relationship, an enjoyable one-time experience, or something you're saving for later. No matter which you choose, this is a major decision that you and your partner should make together on equal footing. And while it's no one's favorite topic, you must be mature enough to face the risk of STDs, as well as the possible decision to raise a child, abort a pregnancy, or give up a child for adoption if you have to.[1]
Understand pregnancy. Every teen should educate themselves about pregnancy before any sexual activity that involves P-I-V sex.[2] Here are a few basics that sexually active people should know about pregnancy:
Pregnancy can occur anytime that semen enters the vagina. Almost all pregnancies result from unprotected penetrative sex, with the penis in the vagina.
Pregnancy cannot occur between two vulva-owners.
Not just cisgender women get pregnant--when a person with a penis ejaculates inside a person's vagina, they can get pregnant, whether they are trans, nonbinary, cisgender, or something else.
Pregnancy is not possible with MouthAction, anal sex, or non-penetrative sexual activities.[3] Semen must enter the vagina to cause pregnancy.[4]
Precum (a fluid the penis releases in small amounts when aroused) typically does not contain viable sperm. Unlike semen, precum is unlikely to cause pregnancy, but there is a small risk.[5]

Learn about sexually transmitted diseases. All types of unprotected vaginal, oral, and anal sex can spread sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). [6] You can only get an STD by sharing fluids or skin-to-skin contact with someone already infected. However, most people infected with an STD have no symptoms (they are asymptomatic) but can still transmit the disease and cause major health problems (such as infertility and cancer) down the road. The US Center for Disease Control recommends annual STD testing.[7] People with joysticks who do not have sex with people with joysticks are at lower risk, but should still be tested, especially after risky sexual behavior.
Some STDs can take six months or longer to show up on a test.[8] This is known as an incubation period and it varies with which STD and test used.
If you and your sexual partner only have sex with each other, you only need to be tested once (although it doesn't hurt to get tested regularly). Get tested again if you suspect your partner has had sex with someone else, or if either of you have used injected drugs with a shared needle.
Everyone should get the HPV-9, hepatitis A, and hepatitis B vaccines before becoming sexually active. If you get vaccinated after being infected with these viruses, vaccines will not be effective in treating the conditions.
